After it warmed up enough to get the paint sorted I sourced some stickers from The Sportbike Sticker Shop. They arrived the day before they were supposed to in a plain envelope with cardboard backing in perfect shape ready to apply. Since I was going for a blue and orange colour scheme and I could colour customize the Ninja stickers, I did.
I went for black Kawasaki logo writing for the lower fairing and 650r stickers for the front. I picked up a Triumph sticker for the toolbox and the Japanese kanji for shinobi (Ninja). Instead of on the toolbox the kanji ended up on the bike on the 'interesting' side (the side with the shock). The metallic silver sticker looks great on the flat black leading into the exhaust port on the fairing.
The stickers went on well and seem to have bonded perfectly. The site says you can clearcoat over them, so I'll do that as a final step and it'll be done. I recommend The Sportbike Sticker Shop - you get your order quickly, it's very competitively priced and the stickers are quality pieces that look great when you get them on, just don't be surprised if you get what looks like a letter from a relative only to find it full of awesome stickers.
With any luck we'll have some heavy rain and then a 10+°C day and I'll be off on the kingfisher coloured Ninja.
